Developing strategies based on these circumstances can assist businesses in ensuring profits and fostering win-win cooperation. This paper explores methods to maximize profit through purchasing and sales strategies. Initially, the relevant data for various categories of vegetables is integrated. Through histograms, their sales patterns are directly understood, highlighting the most popular vegetables. Upon analyzing each vegetable category, it becomes evident that their sales data do not conform to normal distributions. Therefore, Spearman correlation coefficients are calculated, revealing strong correlations between certain categories, such as aquatic roots and edible fungi. A line chart depicting the top ten selling vegetables indicates a noticeable periodicity. Traditional fitting methods struggle to adequately model the sales of each vegetable category and their relationship with cost-plus pricing. To address this, additional factors such as holidays, weeks, and months are incorporated using techniques like random forest regression. This approach yields cost-plus pricing dependence curves that better capture the relationship, while effectively managing noise. Regarding sales volume prediction, the original data displays significant volatility, necessitating the handling of outliers using the threshold method. For missing data, linear interpolation is employed to mitigate the impact of continuous missing values on prediction accuracy. Subsequently, Adam-optimized long short-term memory (LSTM) networks are utilized to forecast incoming quantities for the next seven days. By extrapolating from normal sales volume, market capacity is estimated, allowing for additional sales through discount strategies. This framework has the potential to increase original income by 1.1 times.</p> Wenkang Li Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/PBES/article/view/6199 Sun, 25 Feb 2024 00:00:00 +0800 Research on the Influence of Equity Structure on Corporate Performance https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/PBES/article/view/6204 <p>Equity structure constitutes a crucial component of corporate internal governance.

Firstly, the scale of service trade is limited. Shandong’s service trade volume ranked sixth in China in 2022, lagging considerably behind Shanghai, Guangdong, Beijing, Zhejiang, and Jiangsu. Secondly, the proportion of service trade in Shandong compared to the overall national services trade volume falls below the national average, with the per capita scale even lower than the national average. Thirdly, Shandong’s service trade accounts for less than 10% of the province’s foreign trade, which is 3 percentage points below the national average. The insufficient development of Shandong’s service trade is mainly attributed to the weak performance of its own service industry and the limited scale of attracting foreign services investment. Accelerating the development of producer services in Shandong, promoting the intelligent upgrading of consumer services, and continuously promoting reform and opening up in the service sector will be conducive to achieving high-quality development of services trade in Shandong.</p> Huiqian Yu Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/PBES/article/view/6268 Sun, 25 Feb 2024 00:00:00 +0800 Research on Work-Life Balance of Female Employees https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/PBES/article/view/6269 <p>Nowadays, the pace of work and life is accelerating rapidly, accompanied by significant changes in work content and family structure.

Firstly, decision-makers use a preferred information form to evaluate the importance of each customer requirement. Secondly, a transfer function is employed to unify various forms of preference information into a fuzzy complementary judgment matrix. The ranking vector is then calculated using row and normalization methods, and the initial importance of customer requirements is obtained by aggregating the weights of decision members. Finally, the correction coefficients of initial importance and each demand are synthesized, and the importance of customer requirements is determined through normalization. The development example of the PE jaw crusher demonstrates the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.</p> Guo Mao Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/PBES/article/view/6074 Sun, 25 Feb 2024 00:00:00 +0800 Labor Motivation and Its Influence on Workers’ Productivity – A Secondary Publication https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/PBES/article/view/6257 <p>The productivity of an institution is achieved, in large part, by creating a harmonious environment that reflects the satisfaction, empowerment, and collaborative spirit of each employee.
